Another nothing burger and a pile of dough

What in Gawd's name could anyone learn from Leblanc?

Before I get started on the Indigenous, again, I just had to let you know that you can hear Dominic Leblanc impart his vast wisdom and expertise at a 'Globe and Mail' sponsored series of round tables and it'll only cost you $995!  What a bargain!

Frankly, I wouldn't pay a nickel to hear anything that over-refreshed shill has to say about anything.  But I bet a whole bunch of people will.  He's the same guy who was going to get Canada a tariff-free deal with the U.S., no problem.  That was a year ago and guess what?  Crickets.  Just another Carney barker, in my view.

Speaking of Carney, he just gave the most bizarre and unnecessary speech I have heard him deliver since his Davos dream speech.  I thought it was on re-wind because it was exactly the same drivel he spouted when he hoodwinked Canadians into voting for him.  Since he has taken office?  A lot of sound-and-fury-signifying-nothing.  He's racked up a lot of air miles and tucked into some very pricey and fancy in-flight catering, but what has come of it?  Rhetorical.  

Now he's handing out millions to Sudan.  Sudan??!!  A completely corrupt and failed state.  He's also throwing another pile at Cuba, a "shith-le of a country," according to Trump and he's right on that one.  As for Ukraine, billions have lined the personal coffers of Zelensky with no end game in sight.  It's all outrageous, while vets and seniors live on Canadian streets and eat cat food.

'The Aristotle Foundation' has just released a report on the outrageous money the Cowichan Indigenous gang has bilked the Canadian taxpayer.  Here are the key findings:

"In light of the 2025 B.C. Supreme Court Cowichan decision recognizing Aboriginal title over certain lands, we at the Aristotle Foundation believe it is reasonable to ask how financial transfers factor into the public debate on reconciliation.

"In our new report released today—$1.3 billion in taxpayer funds to the Cowichan Tribes: Federal and provincial funding over 24 years—authors Mark Milke and Ven Venkatachalam examine the scale, growth, and per-member impact of federal and provincial transfers to the Cowichan Tribes since 2001.

"Analyzing publicly available financial data, the short study finds funding accelerating sharply in recent years.

"Key Findings

• Since 2001, the Cowichan Tribes have received nearly $1.3 billion in federal and provincial funding. 

• Funding rose from $37.4 million in 2001–02 to $103.3 million in 2024–25—up 176 percent.  

• Cowichan has 5,627 members, with the on-reserve population at 2,651.  

• In other words, since 2001, the Cowichan Tribes have received $227,223 per member, or $9,468 per member annually. 

"The report notes that taxpayer-funded transfers support important services, such as education, health care, infrastructure, housing, and social programs. However, the cumulative scale of transfers raises broader questions considering ongoing litigation and negotiations that have extended for more than three decades."

So, that's where the bucks go and you can bet the chiefs are enjoying the majority of the riches.  We need more Charmaine Stick's on the case.
